    Is the same for estate and signum? I am convinced that the signum has a wider body at the back (and therefore a wider track)

    25mm rear and 16mm fronts on mine, could even do a few more mil if pushed it... I'd lower first then do a plumb line, then go for the look you want... There is a 9mm difference iirc front to cack hence my custom ones
